He wants to know why it can\u2019t happen tomorrow and if by chance, the White House (That damned Orange Man) has anything to do with the delay. Of course. Schumer\u2019s pandering of the month topic is being front burnered by everyone else on the planet, so it has to be a conspiracy. Because, Trump.<\/p>\n<p>The cause c\u00e9l\u00e8bre is that the United States has no women or coloreds on our paper currency. This is a crime against humanity and likely will accelerate global warming if we don\u2019t fix it now. We have less than twelve years to put her on the bill, after all.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s just take a peak around the planet.<\/p>\n<p>Australia: 2 women, no coloreds. I guess none of the Aborigines is their years of existence have risen to this level of accolade.<\/p>\n<p>Venezuela: Their socialist Nirvana. 1 woman, no coloreds.<\/p>\n<p>Syria: No women, no coloreds.<\/p>\n<p>Sweden, another \u201csocialist haven\u201d. 2 women, no coloreds.<\/p>\n<p>Cuba: No women, no coloreds. But Che Guevara is on one bill. That may be their main hold out. He was such a saint, after all.<\/p>\n<p>China, Russia, even the ever-loved Euro. Nope, nada.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s go to Africa, where the colored population is more prominent.<\/p>\n<p>Libya: Nope, neither. No women,, no coloreds.<\/p>\n<p>Algeria: Nope, neither.<\/p>\n<p>Egypt: Lots of Sphinx depictions, but no women, no coloreds.<\/p>\n<p>South Africa: Nope, not even after Apartheid. I guess Suffrage hasn\u2019t taken hold yet.<\/p>\n<p>Botswana and Kenya: Colored men, no women.<\/p>\n<p>Sudan and Niger: Same as Botswana and Kenya.<\/p>\n<p>Congo: Finally! We found one.<\/p>\n<p>Zambia: Another one! Praise the Lord!<\/p>\n<p>I can hear you now. But, Steve, oh wise one, We are Americans. Surely we can do better. We\u2019re exception\u2026. Oh, wait. We\u2019re not exceptional. We\u2019re just okay. Scratch that. But we just should. Because, Antifa!<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t know about you, but if it happens, I\u2019ll be trading in tens and fifties.

But a current &#8220;high-ranking government official&#8221; appointed by Obama, as well as a former official, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/business\/2019\/07\/15\/obama-officials-say-trump-administration-hasnt-delayed-new-bill-despite-harriet-tubman-firestorm\/?utm_term=.811d9d52a276\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">confirmed to The Washington Post<\/a> that the Tubman bill had &#8220;had &#8220;always been scheduled for release toward the end of the next decade.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This revelation was not enough for talking heads on the left.\u00a0 MSNBC cretin Jason Johnson saying that with the deliberate &#8220;slow roll&#8221; of the change in currency that Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin was a racist and &#8220;basically&#8221; hates black people.\u00a0 He also called Ben Carson (yes, the black Neurosurgeon Housing and Urban Development Secretary) a sexist.<\/p>\n<p>Others were just as strident.\u00a0 By strident, I mean ridiculously over the top, nearly maniacal in their overt hatred of Trump and all things Republican (and\/or white).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The white supremacists running this country are not about to put Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill to have y&#8217;all contemplating racism and resistance every time y&#8217;all go to the ATM,&#8221; artist Bree Newsome Bass wrote on Twitter.<\/p>\n<p>Charlotte Clymer, a communications representative for the Human Rights Campaign,\u00a0said in a tweet that the Trump administration was lying to &#8220;pander&#8221; to white supremacists.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Make no mistake: the decision to cancel the unveiling of Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill is purely to pander to white supremacy. Period. Being &#8216;delayed until 2028&#8217; is a goddamn lie. This is an attempt to make fragile white people comfortable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u00a0A Goddamn lie.\u00a0 White Supremacy. Racism.\u00a0 It can&#8217;t be anything else.\u00a0 There&#8217;s no way at all that it really could be that time consuming to create a new bill design with all of the absolutely necessary security devices embedded.\u00a0 After all,, how many times have we redesigned the $100 to thwart North Korea from continually counterfeiting it?\u00a0 These morons want you to believe it is a simple as a cut and paste on the ole&#8217; tool and die set and Viola!\u00a0 New $20 bill.<\/p>\n<p>But that is how leftism works today.\u00a0 They believe in their cause completely.\u00a0 Utterly without remorse or recourse.\u00a0 No back tracking.\u00a0 As Anaconda Ovary Constipation says, facts do\u00a0 not matter compared to being morally right.<\/p>\n<p>I believe something.\u00a0 My politics are &#8220;woke&#8221; (and yours are not).\u00a0 My intent is pure.\u00a0 If you disagree with me, then you must be racist, homophobic, Islamophobic, (insert your trending &#8220;ism&#8221; or &#8220;phobic&#8221; here).<\/p>\n<p>And this, boys and girls, is why the country will not survive another iteration of Democratic rule.\u00a0 Every tradition we have ever enjoyed, or passed down will be overturned.\u00a0 All in the hopes that we &#8220;feel better about ourselves.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Push for the New Twenty Dollar Bill The SJW are hankering and squawking over another \u201cmake themselves feel good\u201d issue.
